Hi Plemans
I have tried te nmrpflash just there. It gets to a point where it tries to upload the chk file however, I then get a message saying that "an existing connection was forcible closed by the remote host" following which it exits.
The difference between my situation and the instructions in the TFTP is that when I reset or switch on/off the router, the amber light on the router just stays solid as opposed to flashing. I've tried all reset methods and it doesn't seem to help.
Thanks
Liam
